In the area of high-risk pregnancies, preeclampsia poses special challenges. Kimmara Jackson, a highly experienced OB nurse and legal nurse consultant, provides a detailed analysis of how this condition is treated. Pregnant women with preeclampsia have the risk of high blood pressure, decreased kidney function, and seizures. Typically, they are confined to their hospital beds and monitored very closely for a range of symptoms, including decreased urine output, lethargy, and reflex function. One of the challenges with such patients is that they may become increasingly restless and may get out of bed. Some check themselves out of the hospital because they find confinement unbearable. Others may have other children at home who are receiving inadequate care. Preeclampsia also challenges new nursing graduates. They lack the experience to recognize symptoms of lethargy, and they may do inadequate reflex testing. Their feelings of being overwhelmed are deepened by the effect that the Covid epidemic has had in shrinking the resources of all medical personnel. https://youtu.be/dfteTBh2mWo Join me in this episode of Legal Nurse Podcast to learn about Preeclampsia - High Risk Clinical and Legal Complication What are some of the challenges of treating a woman with preeclampsia?
